Om 4 C Smykkekollektion

4C er en smykkekollektion af halskæder og øreringe fremstillet af genanvendt sterlingsølv. Smykkerne viser diamantkonturer i stedet for ægte sten og giver dermed et etisk og økologisk alternativ til rigtige diamanter. Formerne skabes ved hjælp af 3D-modellering, vokstryk og udsmeltningsstøbning (lost wax casting), hvorefter de samles og efterbehandles i hånden. Fire slibninger er inkluderet: brillant, prinsesse, marquise og pæreform. Poleret finish, mat patina og forgyldning tilføjer kontrast og fremhæver den tredimensionelle form i hvert enkelt smykke.

Unikke Egenskaber: 4C jewellery collection provides a new way to wear diamonds and acts as an ecological and ethical alternative to genuine diamonds and their sparkle and status.

The diamonds in the collection are made with 3D-technology to resemble the outlines of different gem cuttings created with precise mathematics and technique, and show the beauty which is usually left unseen.

There are four different cuts; brilliant, princess, marquise and pear, and a limited edition heart cut.

The different finishes; mirror polish and matte patina or gilding, provide contrast to highlight three-dimensionality of the collection.
Dimensioner & Emballage: Length of the necklace chain 800 mm. Sterling silver chain is 2.3 mm thick anchor chain. Optional omega chain length 450 mm and thickness 1.8 mm.

For example brilliant large "diamond" Width 35 mm x Depth 20 mm x Height 35, small "diamond" Width 10.5 mm x Depth 6 mm x Height 10.5 mm.

The 4C jewellery collection comes in the classic Hanna K Design & Jewellery box with a logo. Materials: carton, suede. Colours: black, rose gold.

Produktionsteknologi: Design was created with 3D-modeling, high resolution wax printing, and lost wax casting in recycled sterling silver, made by advanced professionals. It's assembly; soldering, filing and sanding, and finishing; polishing, matte finishing, gilding and patina, is made by hand with traditional goldsmith work.

The 3D-technique was chosen to support the idea behind the jewellery collection; precise gem and diamond cutting practise.
Designudfordring: The design challenge was to create jewellery which is beautiful and delicate by itself but at the same time would play as a conversation starter about ethical and ecological aspects. The design provides light and shadow in its finishing to support this point.

The realization challenge for me was to step out from my comfort zone and instead of creating jewellery collection by hand I was to choose computer aided 3D technology, which offers the perfect tools for this project. Accurate enough 3D wax printing technology had entered in the industry just in time.
Forskning: Project began as wire jewellery tests made first in metals and paper. Accurate 3D wax printing entered in the industry to create precise models and print as wax to cast them in silver.

Details in gem cutting is the hidden gem in the industry. At the same time ethical perspective of gems is the talking point in our field. The 4C collection points an ethical view for this and shows the beauty of the diamond cuts by four most familiar cuts. 4C is a statement piece for the user and the designer.
Inspiration: The name of the 4C collection comes from the components that affect the value of the diamond: cut, carat, colour and clarity.

Stripping a prestigious and valuable diamond into a wire pattern puts it in a new light. The removal of the sparkle gives space to the shape and the jewellery becomes a very graphic object, the inner and outer surface of which can be viewed at the same time.

Ethical and ecological aspects of the diamond industry are the talking point right now. 4C collection are jewellery with diamonds without diamonds. This is my statement piece.
Projektvarighed: The project started in the beginning of 2017 with the first necklace and earring set. The whole collection, four different necklaces and a dozen different earrings, was finished in September 2020 in Kuopio, Finland.
Driftsflow: 4C necklace is a long, solid chain with a small and large diamond pendant. Small diamond connects the chain which works without a lock. The necklace is put on easily just by hanging it around one's neck.

Individual pendants in omega chain have a silver carabiner lock in the chain.

Different versions can be used separately or layered for a more prestigious gala styled look.
